Cancel culture also affects everyday people who belong to friend groups, workplaces, schools, and families. We just don't hear about it because the cases aren't newsworthy. People get suddenly ignored, ostracized, and bullied for being many things whether its LGBT, religious, atheist, or conservative. For examples of people getting cut off or ignored by their families and friends purely based on politics, look up the "WalkAway" group, there are hundreds of emotional video monologues by regular people. Fair warning - it is a partisan FB group, but a majority of the uploads specifically name the cancel culture they experienced as a contributing factor to why they changed their political beliefs. Cancel culture affects ordinary people's social lives and career just as much, perhaps more so than media figures who can rely on the sympathy of like-minded crowds to bounce back.
